But that is just one of my quirks. Don't you think a bidet just makes your stay...? Or is that just me?

But seriously, the service, the people, the room was great. The room we had was quite large with a microwave and a coffee machine, as well as a fridge. This meant we could buy some small items and reheat them if we wanted, which we did when we spotted a Moose Pie for sale in a shop. Novelty for us, so it was great that we could re-heat it and eat it in the room. The only missing was cutlery.

The location was good too, but I guess with such a small town, any hotel in town would be good for exploring in town. Very walkable, albeit a little hilly. But good walking distance to most things, including great cafes and food outlets.

The gym is very small, with a couple of running machines and a couple of free-weights with one machine weight. But if you are just into running, it works. Although running along the harbour would be far prettier.

The thing we liked to the most was the staff. They were very friendly, very helpful and genuinely nice. Five stars for the staff we encountered.

Room Tip: The breakfast buffet appears to only be on the weekend. The week days on has an a la carte menu.

Stayed here for 4 nights recently while attending a conference. Great location - walking distance to cafes, restaurants, shops, 'Jelly Bean Houses' and the port. Still very quiet at night. Fantastic and very helpful staff!!!

Not a luxury hotel but very clean, well run, comfortable with everything in working order.

Would definitely stay here again!

Walking distance to most attractions including Signal Hill, clean, free parking and well priced breakfast at Smitty's restaurant in the lobby. Chatters across the street is a great coffee shop! Though not an inexpensive hotel in peak season it was well worth the cost.

The hotel is quite new and the rooms are modern and tastefully decorated, with comfortable beds, clean linens and decent sized bathrooms. The in-room wi-fi (free) was fast and easy to connect to but not available. In the common areas of the hotel. The service was friendly and helpful, and while the self parking does tend to fill up quickly the hotel will take your car on valet for free if you can't get a spot. The Smitty's restaurant in the lobby serves a decent and reasonably priced breakfast with a new view of the harbor. The elevators can be a bit slow, but this is really the only very small downside to an otherwise wonderful hotel.

Room Tip: Try a harbor view room for a wonderful view of the harbor and Signal Hill.

I stayed for two weeks. The rooms are very clean, the staff all so helpful and caring. The front desk helped a lot with various logistics and my back and forth to Health Sciences.

The room had a great view of the harbour with lots of activity. The entire downtown core - shopping and restaurants - are all within easy walking distance. The real bonus is the restaurant which serves superb meals.

From the moment I saw the amazing harbour view from my room (see photo), I was happy. This is a comfortable, quiet and well-located hotel with some of the friendliest staff I've ever encountered. While it's not a luxury hotel, it is very clean with comfortable beds, chairs, and toiletries, as well as freshly baked cookies every afternoon. I will definitely stay there again.

Room Tip: Definitely ask for a harbour view room.
